best pre-amp new or used for under $500?
By all means, check out a used Morrison ELAD. I have been using one that I bought new for 9 years. I know that there is a lot of hype about it being the best ever, etc., and that can be a real turn-off. My experience has been that it is utterly re... 
Celestion SL6Si Information
I have owned the SL6s, and the SL700 in the past, and I currently own the Kingston and the SL6si. I have a manual for the SL6si and would be happy to send you a photocopy. Email me with your address. They really are something special, and no matte...

Agreed. There should be no hum at all. Have it checked out. 
Review: Jim Smith Home Consultation & Set Up Speaker
I agree with Ejlif. I appreciate your reccomendation, but you didn't really tell us anything about what he did. Also, I'm sure the fee for his services would vary by the complexity of the system, but it would be nice to have a ballpark idea of the... 
What's your best audio "find"

Kilpsch KG4s or JBL L40s?

Is it OK to place speakers behind me ?
It works in cars. Stereo can be perceived effectively from in front and from behind.

What legal dispute? 
what percentage of us really knows sound
If most expensive audiophile systems are so bad, why do you continue to go to listen to them? Also, please tell us what your system consists of. 
Speaker refinish
If you leave the grills off, they will darken surprisingly fast. I had the same issue with a pair of Spendor 9/1 speakers. They looked even after about 6 weeks of normal light exposure.

Try Sonic Craft. Ask for Jeff.

A hundred bucks or so in the long run isn't much... 
Revel Salons and Adcom amp, good match?
If I was you, I would definately be concerned about the sound quality. Those are very revealing speakers, and they will reveal the nature of that amp. They are worthy of better, but listening will tell the tale.
